Abstract: To investigate the effect and mechanism of Quduyangxinchongji on viral myocarditis. MethodsSixty male BABL/C mice were randomly divided into the control group, the virus group and the drug group, with 20 mice in each group. Mice in the second and third groups were intraperitoneally inoculated with coxsackievirus B3, while those in the control group were administrated with Eagle′s without coxsackievirus B3. Also the drug group was subjected to Quduyangxinchongji in the stomach after coxsackievirus B3 infection. All mice were killed 21 days later and their hearts were removed for analysis. The levels of IL-6 mRNA expression and protein in the myocardium were respectively determined by real-time PCR and immunohistochchemistry technique. ResultsAs compared with the virus group, the myocardial histopathological scores and mRNA and protein expressions of IL-6 were significantly decreased in the drug group (P<0.05). ConclusionQuduyangxinchongji might play a pivotal role in viral myocarditis by inhibiting the IL-6 expression in heart tissues.
